Orangeville there has been many concerns put forth by residents regarding traffic safety. The prevailing concern is that vehicles simply drive too fast on our neighbourhood streets. It has been consistently proven that higher speeds contribute to higher risk of serious injuries and fatalities by reducing driver reaction time, increasing the vehicle stopping distance, and inflicting more severe blunt force trauma on victims upon impact. A Reduction of speed limits is a tool that the town of Orangeville can utilize to reduce the number of road traffic crashes and the serious injury and safety concerns that result from high vehicle speeds. Therefore be it resolved that all 50 km/h roadways in Orangeville be revised to 40km/hour.
